About

Decorate a powder room, bedroom, or entryway with this elegant antique wall mirror from France. Crafted circa 1870 in the classic Louis Philippe taste, the rectangular frame features softly rounded upper corners and a refined molded silhouette characteristic of the period. The mirror is dressed in a beautifully aged two-tone giltwood finish with warm gold leaf and beige with reddish undertones peeking through the rubbed surface, creating exceptional depth, texture, and character.
A delicate beaded inner border frames the original mercury glass plate, which has developed desirable age spotting and soft oxidation over time, giving the reflection the romantic patina sought after in authentic 19th century French mirrors. The back retains its original wood planks, another strong indicator of authenticity and craftsmanship.
Elegant in scale and versatile in placement, this antique Louis Philippe mirror would work beautifully over a commode, vanity, console, or layered into a gallery wall. The piece is in excellent condition commensurate with age and use, with minor wear consistent with its age and genuine antique character.
Dimensions: 26.75”W x 30”H
